 Coolness: 76210 | On December 13 the Canadian Senate Passed S-10 (formerly known as C-15 and C-26 before that). So, where does that leave our community?
S-10 proposes Mandatory Minimum Sentences of 6 months for growing 6 or more marijuana plants, and 18 months for producing any amount of hashish or edibles (cookies, brownies, etc). S-10, like C-15 and C-26 before it, has been opposed by every expert as a massive waste of money that will increase crime and violence on our streets. In response, the Stephen Harper Conservatives have been unwilling and unable to offer up a single peice of evidence to support S-10. Even the US Drug Czar, Gil Kerlikowske described bills like S-10 as being “dumb on drugs”. When the US Drug Czar, a man legally obligated to support the drug war is calling this bill “dumb” it must be pretty dumb indeed. S-10 must now proceed to the House of Commons for an identical process (2 votes, committee hearings, committee report vote, final vote) as it went through in the Senate. The difference for our community is that now we can address our concerns to our elected officials, who are generally more responsive than our unelected Senators. If we're going to defeat S-10, we need your help! Here's what you can do to help: 1) Call Liberal Leader Michael Ignatieff's office, and encourage the Liberals to take a strong stand against S-10: (613) 995-9364 and (416) 251-5510 2) Call the Conservative Party of Canada and express your outrage, in as great a detail as you can, at this horrific attack on our community and our culture: (866) 808-8407 3) Post this article on Facebook, Twitter, Marijuana Forums and anywhere else online you can! 4) Sign and Share the No on S-10 Petition and Email Campaign! on Facebook, Twitter and Forums! 5) Call your local head shop (bong/pipe store), grow/hydroponics store or medical marijuana dispensary and make sure they know about S-10 and encourage them to get involved! (Handbills are available in color and black and white on the front page of [ WhyProhibition.ca ] 6) Get your friends signed up to [ WhyProhibition.ca ] ! We've almost doubled our membership in 2010, and with it, almost doubled our power in Canadian politics! With your help, we will be able to push harder than every before and make sure S-10 doesn't pass! With your help, we can defeat S-10 just as we did C-15 and C-26 before it! Get active, start calling and make S-10 history! [ iheartfreedom.ca ] from what i've read on other sites, you get 6 months for growing 6 to 200 plants. but another way to view these figures is that you get 6 months for growing approximately $6,000 to $200,000 worth of MJ. ... moral of the story: if you're gona grow da erbs, you might as well go as big as you can and go all the way up to 199 plants to make it worth your while |

 Coolness: 37850 | Bill S-10 is long dead. C-10, however, is the up-and-coming bill, and it includes everything that was in S-10 and much, much more. Mandatory minimums all over the fucking place. There's basically nothing that can be done to stop it at this point, sadly.
Here's the full text of the bill. |

| Coolness: 76210 | Prime Minister Stephen Harper is getting tougher on pot growers than he is on rapists of children.
Under the Tories' omnibus crime legislation tabled Tuesday, a person growing 201 pot plants in a rental unit would receive a longer mandatory sentence than someone who rapes a toddler or forces a five-year-old to have sex with an animal. Producing six to 200 pot plants nets an automatic six-month sentence, with an extra three months if it's done in a rental or is deemed a public-safety hazard. Growing 201 to 500 plants brings a one-year sentence, or 1 1/2 years if it's in a rental or poses a safety risk. The omnibus legislation imposes one-year mandatory minimums for sexually assaulting a child, luring a child via the Internet or involving a child in bestiality. All three of these offences carry lighter automatic sentences than those for people running medium-sized grow-ops in rental property or on someone else's land. A pedophile who gets a child to watch pornography with him, or a pervert exposing himself to kids at a playground, would receive a minimum 90-day sentence, half the term of a man convicted of growing six pot plants in his own home. The maximum sentence for growing marijuana would double from seven to 14 years, the same maximum applied to someone using a weapon during a child rape, and four years more than for someone sexually assaulting a kid without using a weapon. In B.C., if police and prosecutors don't rebel against the new laws, we're going to be hit with massive jail costs, says Simon Fraser University criminologist Neil Boyd. The new marijuana legislation will increase the proportion of pot criminals in B.C. jails from less than five per cent to around 30 per cent, at a cost of $60,000 to $70,000 per inmate annually, Boyd says. "Why put people who are not violent in jail?" Boyd asks. "People who commit serious violent crime are already dealt with pretty harshly, and crime rates are down, not up." Harper's U.S.-style war on drugs ignores our southern neighbour's expensive failed effort. "Eight states — including New York, where laws were the most punitive in the nation — have repealed most of these mandatory-minimum sentences, and dozens of other jurisdictions are considering repeal or reform," a February report from Human Rights Watch says. Even the government's own Justice Department questions the use of mandatory minimums. "There is some indication that minimum sentences are not an effective sentencing tool," reads a 2010 report from the department. "They constrain judicial discretion without offering any increased crime-prevention benefits." Provincial jails — where most people convicted under the new laws will end up — provide far fewer rehabilitation programs than federal prisons, leading to higher rates of re-offending, says Stacey Hannem, chairman of the policy review committee at the Canadian Criminal Justice Association. "There's a real revolving-door problem in our provincial institutions," Hannem says. "If you're going to throw even more people in there, you can bet that the recidivism rate in the provincial system is likely to go up. "If you want to get tough on crime, that's fine. But don't sell it as increasing public safety. That's just not true." [ www.theprovince.com ] |

 Coolness: 73790 | Then it is perfectly safe to assume that growing upto 5 cannabis houseplants for personnal use is perfectly legal. Proper plant care also multiplies growth and yeild ( ei 36 plants in on ( 1 to 2 to 4 to 8 to 16 to 36 to 72, etc ).
Keep on growin an ill keep smokin, fuck the law I aint drinkin. |

 Coolness: 159075 | Through sunlight exposure, plants achieve photosynthesis which releases oxygen. Less plants, less oxygen. Pot are still plants I checked.
So Harper is cutting down of the number of such plants in one's home. This in turn reduces the amount of oxygen produced in homes ergo Harper is also against cleaner air and therefore the environment. The Conservatives : cracking down on pot and the environment. |
